Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
HornetQ REST (hornetq-rest) versions before 2.5.0.Beta1 are vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) processing because RestEasy is insecurely configured. The source gives few details about how an attacker reaches the vulnerable endpoint or what they can read. Upgrade to 2.5.0.Beta1 or later, where this is fixed.
